To improve the fermentation efficiency of Propionibacterium acidipropionici, a simplified metabolic network was established to provide theoretical guidance for medium optimization and process regulation. The effect of glucose and glycerol on propionic acid production and metabolic flux distribution was investigated and the combination of glucose and glycerol was optimized. The results showed that the productivity of propionic acid could be improved by enhancing the synthesis of pyruvate and its flux distribution to the oxaloacetate branch. Finally, the scaled-up fed-batch fermentation of P. acidipropionici was conducted. The concentration of propionic acid reached 51.75 ± 3.62g/L with a glucose/glycerol ratio of 4:1, an improvement of 79.25% relative to the use of glucose alone, and the corresponding productivity and yield were 0.39g/(L· h) and 0.52g/g, respectively. Therefore, the combination of glucose and glycerol significantly improved the productivity of propionic acid and provides a new strategy for industrial production.
